How to Prepare Taragna Polenta in the Instant Pot
Put the water in the instant pot, close the lid and bring to a boil using the high pressure function.
As soon as the water starts boiling, turn off the pot, release the steam, and open the lid.
At this point, add the coarse salt and extra virgin olive oil.
Add the buckwheat flour for polenta gradually and stir immediately with a hand whisk to avoid lumps.
Once mixed well, close the lid again and start cooking for 10 minutes using the low pressure function.
When the polenta is cooked, turn off the pot, release the steam, and open the lid.
Cut the fontina and butter into cubes.
As soon as you open the lid, add butter and fontina to the polenta and stir vigorously to combine them.
Serve the taragna polenta in the instant pot still hot and stringy.
